Description
Do you want to build a career that is truly worthwhile? Working at the World Bank Group provides a unique opportunity for you to help our clients solve their greatest development challenges. The World Bank Group is one of the largest sources of funding and knowledge for developing countries; a unique global partnership of five institutions dedicated to ending extreme poverty, increasing shared prosperity and promoting sustainable development. With 189 member countries and more than 120 offices worldwide, we work with public and private sector partners, investing in groundbreaking projects and using data, research, and technology to develop solutions to the most urgent global challenges. Please visit www.worldbank.org.
Building capable, effective, accountable, transparent, and inclusive institutions that deliver citizen-centric services, facilitate private-sector growth, and build trust in government is paramount for promoting shared prosperity. The world needs sound institutions and stable and responsive governance systems that can navigate and address the complex current challenges. Moreover, accountable and transparent governance promotes responsible resource management that invests and contributes to the creation of a sustainable and livable planet for current and future generations.
The Public Administration Global Unit in the World Bank’s Governance Practice comprises five global programs focused on thematic areas that are key to advancing effective, accountable, transparent, and inclusive institutions. Each program delivers activities in knowledge and innovation, data and analytics, operational work, as well as convening and partnership. These global programs are: Improving Public Administration Performance, Justice and Rule of Law, GovTech and Public Sector Innovation, Anticorruption for Development, and Coalitions for Reforms. Each program supports activities in knowledge and innovation, data and analytics, operational work, as well as convening and partnership. Financial support for these programs comes from the World Bank and the Governance and Institutions Umbrella Program (G&I) Multi-Donor Trust Fund.
Anticorruption for Development Global Program
The WB is adopting a more integrative approach to tackling corruption, to better address the illicit financial flows generated by corruption as well as the persistent challenges that corruption presents to development outcomes in health, education, access to economic opportunities, and to the welfare of societies. To help close the financing gap, our support to building the capacity of clients in fighting corruption needs to be complemented with efforts to address the transnational enablers. The Global Program on Anticorruption for Development is mobilizing knowledge, data, tools and partnerships to enhance the Bank’s impacts in the uses of data and technology, in reducing corruption in public procurement, strengthening accountability institutions and beneficial ownership transparency and in countering illicit financial flows. We are working with partners across the WBG to better leverage the impact of Bank operations in fighting corruption and exploit the synergies across the Bank’s functions.
The Global Program is undertaking a series of activities to advance knowledge and generate actionable evidence for reform to strengthen the effectiveness of beneficial ownership reforms and better address the institutional vulnerabilities that contribute to illicit financial flows from corruption. This program includes a mix of new research activities, convening and collaborating with academic partners and international organizations, support to targeted country engagements, preparation and delivery of training curricula and publication of knowledge products.
Tasks and Activities
The extended term consultant will support the Anticorruption for Development Global Program in the following areas:
• Provide technical and intellectual leadership to the research and evidence work of the Anticorruption Global Program on the effectiveness and impacts of beneficial ownership reforms: provide substantive inputs to the direction of the activities, lead on the drafting of project documents and reports, provide supervision and guidance to consultants.
• Coordinate the meetings of the World Bank’s Beneficial Ownership Task Force.
• Coordinate the activities of the Anticorruption Global Program related to enhancing diagnostics of grand corruption and its links to illicit financial flows: coordinate meetings with WB partners, academic partners and other international organizations; support and supervise research activities by consultants, lead on the preparation and presentation of findings.
• Contribute to WB policy documents, outreach, training materials and other communications on topics in the Global Program related to beneficial ownership transparency, grand corruption and corruption diagnostics.
Selection Criteria
• Minimum of master’s degree with an emphasis on public administration, public policy, political science, economics, or a relevant discipline - and a minimum of 8 years of relevant experience.
• Demonstrated expertise in the relevant policy frameworks and implementation approaches for advancing beneficial ownership transparency reforms; a deep knowledge of available tools, and institutional and policy frameworks relevant to combating grand corruption.
• Excellent data analytics and quantitative skills are a strong plus. A track record of working with data is a requirement.
• Experience in supporting anticorruption reform in several WB client countries through analytical and operational engagements. Experience in fragile- and conflict-affected situations would be an advantage.
• Demonstrated ability to translate academic knowledge into operationalizable insight, and, conversely, in harvesting operational-level learning into policy-level learning products.
• Excellent writing skills with demonstrated ability to lead and author evidence-based policy reports.
• Excellent interpersonal skills, including the ability to work effectively in a team/task force as a participant or team leader and with senior officials internally and externally.
